Dr Rolfo speaks to ecancer at BEST OF ASCO® 2018 MIAMI SYMPOSIUM about new compounds for targeted therapy and immunotherapy.

These include new compounds found in RET, ALK and ROS.

He also discusses the new compounds in immunotherapy, one specifically, an anti PD-L1 for TGF-β in HBB tumours.

Dr Rolfo finishes on a reminder that we need to test all the patients for driver mutations before starting immunotherapy.
